What are my chances as a healthy male in my 30s of dying from cardiovascular disease on a daily basis? Now if I hike in the back country, what are my chances of dying from a grizzly attack?
Your chances of dying of cardiovascular disease as a 30 year old are infinitely higher than being killed by a grizzly bear even if you live right next to Yellowstone and hike there every day

Prove this please. You are going off of some absurd stats that have absolutely nothing to do with the average person that dies from each in the given location.
What are the chances that someone from NYC that never leaves the city dies from a Grizzly atttack? Literallly 0.
I’m not disagreeing that bear attacks are very rare. I absolutely agree. I’m simply saying that a lot of this statistics on deaths are greatly skewed. The people that routinely engage in a given activity are much more likely than average to be affected.
